Shorncliffe is a suburb of Brisbane, Australia. It is situated northeast of Brisbane and is the neighbouring suburb of Sandgate. The suburb comes under the jurisdiction of the Brisbane City Council. At the 2011 Australian Census the suburb recorded a population of 1,914.〔 It is a small community with a village atmosphere. At times Shorncliffe has different festivals, including The Blue Water Festival whereby that start of the Brisbane to Gladstone yacht race begins from the opening of The Cabbage Tree Creek. Aboriginals called the area Warra, meaning an expanse of water. As of March 2012, the entirety of the pier was closed off to the public by the council due to fears of structural failure. The pier is closed indefinitely, the fate of the pier rests on government funding. ==History== The Sandgate Golf Club commenced in 1921 with the official opening of its 9-hole course on 25 November 1922, having obtained a 21-year lease of the site from the Sandgate Town Council for a nominal rental as the Council believed that the golf course would be of lasting benefit.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sandgategc.com.au/ )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shorncliffe, Queensland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
